Systems Administrator/Infrastructure Projects
About Us
ASSA ABLOY is the global leader in access solutions, trusted in over 70 countries to deliver smart, secure and seamless experiences.

About the Role
Based in Albany, this opportunity would suit an experienced Systems Administrator who has also had some involvement in managing local projects in infrastructure, cybersecurity and technology.
The role will be the NZ lead on local projects from discovery and planning through testing, implementation and operational handover. Projects may span network and micro-segmentation, infrastructure, cloud environments, data migration, identity and access management, and broader cybersecurity initiatives. However, this role is not just projects – you will also need to be comfortable operating in the day to day hands-on operational aspects of an IT function within a manufacturing environment.
While you will have enough understanding of technical dependencies to remove roadblocks and keep delivery on track, you will also have the support of business leaders and technical specialists outside of NZ. However, as the NZ based lead of such projects, you will need to stay close to the detail, challenge gaps, work through technical issues and clearly communicate progress, risks and key decisions to stakeholders including the local senior leadership team.
To be successful in this role, you will bring strong infrastructure knowledge and experience in delivering projects. You will be technically confident to understand configurations, system dependencies and implementation challenges, and be able to effectively articulate these to senior leaders. You will have displayed your ability to engage with both technical and business stakeholders, and translate technical complexity into clear actions and decisions while maintaining momentum across multiple initiatives.
Salary & Benefits
$110,000 NZD per annum
In addition to a competitive salary, we offer a number of employee benefits including life and critical illness insurance. We pride ourselves on our employee wellbeing initiatives and as an organisation we have a strong focus on employee engagement and development.
